Roughly 45 percent of Massachusetts residents support providing shelter to new migrants, according to a recent GBH News/CommonWealth Beacon poll, conducted by the MassINC Polling Group. That support fell from 55 percent over the last six months, as an influx of new arrivals have overwhelmed the state’s shelter system. To break down the findings and what they mean, Craig LeMoult is joined by GBH News reporter Sarah Betancourt, Republican State Senator Peter Durant, and Robin Nice, chair of the New England chapter of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
